I was looking forward to audioguru's reply no doubt, but from the time I have been reading about amplifiers I only herd about that yesterday and it wasn't from reading someone had to mention it.Hi,
I always thought: the higher the better.
--> audioguru surely gives a detailed answer ;-)

Audioguru, I hope you don´t mind a few words on that.The damping factor of an amplifier damps speaker resonance.
Yes, the resonance is damped so it is not audible.Do you agree with me that the "THUMP" is the same when you short circuit the speaker wires without any amplifer?
I disagree. A woofer operates above, at and below its resonant frequency but performs poorly at high frequencies so the crossover network cuts high frequencies to the woofer.Resonance of a speaker:
Usually you don't want a speaker to operate at or near it´s resonance frequency. Therefore one uses crossover in a loudspeaker box.
Yes, woofers. Indeed you are correct, as always.I disagree. A woofer operates above, at and below its resonant frequency
